Product Giveaway - Italian Cooking Gizmo

If you read my post yesterday about my encounter with a street vendor at Rome's Campo dei Fiori, you know that this enterprising and entertaining personage convinced me to buy one of the kitchen wares that he was hawking. Now, I'm offering it to one of you readers as I think this is something that someone else should try out.

So, I'm giving away one "L'Originale 100% Made in Italy Master 5" on this site. I know that we can't always fly to Italy on a whim, but with this, maybe you'll be able to capture some of the magic of la cucina italiana a casa tua. Remember, this is a multi-functional piece. It cores, peels, juliennes, scales fish, makes crinkle cuts, and, oh, yes, makes bubbles, too.

The Rules (There have to be some of these, you know.)Eligibility: U.S. mainland residents only. To Enter: Write a comment on this post with the answer to the following question: What did the vendor hold up as 'earrings'?You must also have a valid screen name (not "Anonymous") with a corresponding email address to enter this giveaway. I'll need to be able to click on it in order to contact the winner.Deadline: IsMonday, March 7th at 12:00 p.m. EST, based upon the date/time stamp on the comments. (I'm going to be strict about this and make no exceptions.) The Outcome: Onlyonewinner will be chosen for this gizmo. I'm going to put all the entries into an online Randomizer (like thisone) to come up with the winner.

@Kristen - thank you! Good to be back. You would have totally loved this vendor guy. Maybe on our Rome-Pompeii Trip Reunion Tour we can catch him (which is also why I included the lemons photo in the other post).

Thanks to everyone for their entries! I'll be reaching out to the winner shortly.

This contest closed as of today, March 7, 2011 at 12:00 p.m. EST. Any comment with a date and/or timestamp after that will not be considered eligible for this giveaway, as per the rules outlined in the post about this contest.
